    Hiking

    "A walk through the Tauber Valley is a walk through German history," wrote Wilhelm Heinrich Riehl in an essay published in 1865. In this description, the city of Rothenburg is praised as a first-rate monument of art and culture.

    The beauty of Rothenburg and its surroundings became known and famous through poets and painters of the Romantic era. The compact medieval townscape high above the deeply incised Tauber Valley fascinates visitors interested in art and building history, as does the rich, eventful history of the former free imperial city.

    Hiking

    The castle garden, where the castle once stood, is located on the plateau around which the Tauber flows in a loop. Accordingly, there are great views of the largely unspoilt landscape of the Tauber river valley and a wonderful panorama of the old town stretching out to the side.
